LPE 427 F-body practice runs
Hi Guys -
Thought you might want to check out this link to one of our fast cars making some practice runs. We weren't able to make a full pass, but the preliminary numbers look promising.

We can see why there are no full 1/4 numbers. That had to hurt!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
Was that at Muncie Dragway on a Saturday? Because thats the only day of the week that place will hook! lol
Looks strong! Is that the car you guys are taking to North vs. South?

Cool launch!! Even if it wasn't N/A. Now get some wheelie bars. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Thanks for the comments, it is definately getting wheelie bars next!!
We were lucky, thanks to a good driver, he was able to do the 1-2 shift, and peddle enough to keep the front end from slamming hard enough to break anything!
Sorry about the N/A wording, we're so used to turbo and S/C cars, we forget!
I can't wait to see what this thing will do with a full pass!

PSJ - yes, you are correct on both counts!!! I'm not sure what size slicks we ran, we have tried several different sizes, so I'm not sure which ones we had on that run.
I went out and looked underneath this weekend, not even a scrath on the crossmember! we got really lucky!
